Why the first million is the hardest, but the next million will be easier. ❓

Most will hear behavioral reasons. ☝️

For example, because we have to build discipline, because we have to learn new skills first, when we practice, be patient, we can save money, which is right. 😀

But let's take a look at something mathematically hidden.

✖️➗

🔸 assume by numbers that are easy to think about.

🪙 if we've collected 100 baht.

📊 is a 10% return over 1 year.

🟰 We'll have 110 baht.

🪙 If we save 10,000 baht,

📊 is a 10% return over 1 year.

🟰 We'll have 11,000.

So...

🪙 If we save $1,000,000,

📊 to invest 10% return over 1 year

🟰, we'll have $1,100,000.

Now if we get 10% every year, what happens ‼️

With compound returns...

🪙 with the initial 1,000,000 we have.

📊. Put the investment at a 10% return through 8 years.

🟰 Well, it turned out to be over 2,000,000.

It grew out without working for 😳😳

(This, if you find it too, how much? Think about it)

Whereas, if we use the principal 10,000,

Put it at the same place. 8 years passed.

The money will only increase to 20,000 baht.

(Which would be quicker to work on)

✌️ That's why, for two reasons,

Of course, if we can collect the first million,

The next million are inevitable, of course. 😎✨

... Read moreจากประสบการณ์ตรง ผมเห็นว่าสาเหตุที่ล้านแรกยากที่สุด ไม่ใช่แค่เพราะการอดทนหรือวินัยเท่านั้น แต่ยังรวมถึงวิธีการเริ่มต้นที่ถูกต้องด้วย เมื่อเรามีเงินก้อนแรกเริ่มต้น เช่น 100 บาท แน่นอนว่าผลตอบแทนที่ได้จากการลงทุนจะเป็นสัดส่วนเล็กน้อย และการเก็บเพิ่มอีกจนถึงหลักล้านดูเหมือนต้องใช้เวลานานมาก แต่เมื่อเงินต้นเพิ่มขึ้นเป็นล้าน การลงทุนที่ได้ผลตอบแทน 10% จะช่วยเพิ่มมูลค่าของเงินเราอย่างก้าวกระโดด เพราะผลตอบแทนทบต้นทำงานกับเงินทุนของเราตลอดเวลา นี่คือเหตุผลที่ผมชอบเน้นย้ำเรื่องการสร้างฐานเงินล้านแรกให้ได้เร็วที่สุด แม้ว่าจะต้องมีวินัยอย่างมาก แต่เมื่อได้เงินก้อนนั้นแล้ว การทำให้เงินงอกเงยจะง่ายและเร็วขึ้นมากกว่าที่เราคิด นอกจากนี้ยังมีเรื่องของการลงทุนอย่างสม่ำเสมอ และการใช้เครื่องมือทางการเงินที่เหมาะสม เช่น กองทุนรวมหรือหุ้น ซึ่งช่วยให้เราได้รับผลตอบแทนทบต้นอย่างต่อเนื่อง โดยไม่ต้องเสียเวลาหาเงินเพิ่มมากมายทุกวัน ผมเคยลองเปรียบเทียบการลงทุนที่เงินต้น 10,000 บาท กับ 1,000,000 บาท ผลลัพธ์หลังผ่าน 8 ปีแตกต่างกันอย่างชัดเจน – เงินล้านสามารถเพิ่มขึ้นเป็นมากกว่า 2 ล้านบาทได้โดยไม่ต้องลงแรงเพิ่ม ขณะที่เงิน 10,000 บาทใช้เวลานานมากที่จะเติบโตถึงหลักแสน สรุปคือ ถ้าเราสามารถเก็บล้านแรกให้ได้ จะเหมือนได้กุญแจที่เปิดประตูสู่ความมั่งคั่ง เพราะผลตอบแทนทบต้นจะเป็นตัวช่วยสำคัญที่จะทำให้ล้านต่อไปเกิดขึ้นง่ายและเร็วขึ้นอย่างแน่นอน ลองนำข้อคิดนี้ไปใช้ วางแผนการเงิน และลงมือเก็บเงินล้านแรกให้สำเร็จก่อน จะเห็นภาพชัดเจนถึงพลังของการลงทุนและผลตอบแทนทบต้นที่แท้จริง
